air spaces between the outer and inner walls -ben sealed, provide a blanket of dead air Whic serves as an effective non-conductor of any heat which may penetrate the outer walls; and the inner wall members having another linin of insulating material combine to provi e a most eicient safeguard to the contents in the interior of the structure.

I do not desire to confine myself strictly to the preferred form shown and described herein, as this is but one of many modifications within the spirit of my invention.

I claim 1. A safe comprising two composite walls disposed at right angles and having a miter joint between them, respectively inner sheet-metal members and outer sheet-metal members and having bevopiel of this patent may be obtained for YVend 'flanges overlapped and brazed to the said walls comprising Y Aeled extensions integral with certain of said members, said beveled extensions having other sheet-metal members, `extensions being bulged apart through a. porf tion of their lengths forming an insulating chamber along the miter joint.
